Your and her E can go in the same smoke, and you are both shrowded, play Electrocute/DH For late game, as akali scales really hard.
Yasuo
Yasuo Has wind shields, walls, and hyper life steal, and can hyper carry if fed enough, play around his windwall, bait it out, Q his Shield off, and go for a combo ignite.
Ahri
When fighting a ahri, she has hyper mobility, and counters you as a ranged mage. Her core items are getting buffed in 11.6 and you have to bait out her Charm and Q, aswell as her R to be able to win the matchup effectively and build Hextech for close gap.
LeBlanc
Leblanc has major gap closing, CC, and a TON of scaling with seraphs embrace, you need to play around her, waiting for the W proc, and then going in with a hextech rocketbelt.
Katarina
Just play around her R, E and W to escape her ult, and you should do fine.
Diana
Diana is a Extreme Threat, you need to bait out her ult and try to run gap close.
Neeko
I mean... Its neeko... Bait out her ult, stun, and build gap close.
Anivia
Aniva can be a threat it high elo if shes used correctly, try skirmishing around her ult, watching guides to study her, and using your E to get out of her stuns and abilities.
Qiyana
A good Qiyana late game, can destroy you, you have to win early game, and try to bait out her rushes, Q's, and ult's. Also, she has poke ADV on you, so play smart.
Ekko
Try not to go in if his ult is up, and bait out his ult and play defensively around his Q's, i recommend baiting out his Ult with normal abilities, and saving your R for when its down.
Veigar
Veigar is extremely Meta right now, and hard to deal with, he will stun you and basically 2 shot you, i recommend hextech against him, and trying to go for a hextech E, R, E2, and finish.
Zed
Zed is arguably the #1 Mid laner due to his high skill ceiling, However, you counter him quite well, Build DH and try to roam to get fed, Build dark seal 2nd and try to force him to use his ult, then go in with Night Harvester E.
Leona
Kai'Sa
Yasuo
Yasuo provides a wind wall which helps with your escape when you go deep in with your Q, and also knocks up enemys for you to charge Passive.
Seraphine
Heals, Stuns, Charms, DMG's for your Q, not much more to say, she is really good for you to escape aswell.
Swain
He does massive amounts of damage and poke for you to follow up with, and is great if you are going Bot early game.

Hello There Im a Akali main named Abbyca!I am usually known for my off meta Akali ADC Duo with Seraphine, and carrying games with 30+ Kills as a two shot akali. So, I thought i'd share my success with you <3!
First 4 Waves
Starting out, you will usually be running Doran's ring, against matchups like yone, or melee champs, you want to let them push your wave back till near tower, Q the minions until level 2, and you want to go in with E, and Q. If you get them low, Flash, Q, Ignite. You should get first blood using this technique, and I highly reccomend it.
Roaming
As Akali, Roaming is very vital if you are going dark seal, If i see a very squishy team comp and I know i can roam, i usually run TP or Waterwalking. Inorder to roam, you need to make sure you have lane prio, or, you are using roaming to get fed, So that you can come back and win lane. A good time to roam, is if you are playing mid and you get a kill on the enemy mid, and see a opening in bot lane, you can TP behind the enemy bot lane Via Ward, or you just walk down, during this time, you will need to facecheck for enemy wards, scuttle, and look for pings, when going in, make sure you ping and make sure your bot has enough mana and Health. After this, place a ward down for bot lane vision Priority, and head back up to your lane.
Taking Towers
As Akali, taking towers is very hard for you as a AP Based Champion, inorder to take towers successfully, I would recommend getting a rift harold, having atleast a dark seal/AD 2nd item, boots, and a 3rd Item. Their Jungle will gank soon after your ward so you have to go fast. Then, retrieve tower plating, if rift is still up, just kill the enemy mid with your JG, and move up.
Engagements
As Akali, you are a Assassin, your main goal is to maxamize your damage output but try not to die in the process. Akali excells at this mid-late game, and inorder to fight well, you need to know when to fight. With assassins, you need to look for a opening, maybe someone is overextending, and you can E1, Q, E2, Q, W, Q them, or just are being stupid and dancing with no minions, you need to know your map, see what control you have, and try to fight when you see a opening that you can abuse.
